How should I determine whether a specific activity/project/program is eligible for funding under the EECBG?
A list of eligible activities for use of program funds is contained in Sec. 544 of EISA and from our Action Center. Additional activities may be eligible pending approval by the DOE. These activities are therefore not an exhaustive list and should be used as a guide to the intent of the program. DOE encourages each entity to develop a strategy, including its component activities, that is likely to result in maximum energy efficiency improvements, fossil-fuel emission reductions, economic benefits and total energy use reduction. Entities may submit any other appropriate activity for approval in the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Strategy. DOE has suggested a strategy of “propose and defend” which is taken to mean that local governments may consider submitting innovative programs and proposals and providing evidence that they meet the requirements and intent of the EECBG guidance and any related requirements.
